Pagodas at Pagan, Myanmar |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| This once-thriving city is home to thousands of pagodas, built mostly between 1044, under the reign of Anawrahta, and 1287, the year Kublai Khan launched an attack on Pagan that ended its glory. Although many of the pagodas have crumbled over time, the remains of more than 5000 can still be seen, including Ananda (center) and Thatbyinnyu (right), in the near-deserted fields of Pagan. | ||||||
